do pro comp mts do good compared to swamper ltbs I am looking for new tires and I was originally going to buy LTBs but I was talking with this friend of my dads who has tried every tire on the market and he told me the best mud tire you can buy is a pro comp mt and they will keep going when the swampers are buried I don't do any rock crawling but that is made up for by muddin, trails, and hillclimbing i dont know what to believe now

I've run 33'' pro-comp mt's for 3yrs. They replaced my 33'' swampers. I should say, they were put in the same place of the previously mounted swampers. I run pro-comp mt because I do alot of street driving. They balance great and hold it. I've put almost 20k on them with very little wear. Swamper don't balance for sh*t. If you air down, its worse if they rotate on the rim. But, for mud traction, they can't be beat. For mudding, pro-comp mt's don't compare. Don't get me wrong, they are ok. Great for me too. But they are not a swamper.(period) Stew

if it doesnt say Interco its not a mud tire. my pro comps were decent. they wore well and worked good on rocks. the sidewalls suck mud was ok but the superswamper will tear it apart in the mud if u have the power to spin them. the swampers prolly only dug because he didnt have the power to clean them

how many miles would pro comps probably last? what about the mileage you could put on LTBs? Is a BFG m/t a better mud tire than a pro comp?

the swamper will kick ass everywhere. the milage from a procomp mt is prolly somewhere between 40-50k miles or so . i had 20k and they were a little better then 1/2 tread and thats with a lokcer in the rear
